Wellness with Dr. Denis'

You’ve got enough to do, so you don’t need an elaborate plan for wellness, but you do need to stay attuned to it. That’s what we are talking about today.

My suggestion for the best, most sustainable wellness plan is to cultivate a few small, easy-to-do wellness habits with intention, and supplement that with restorative wellness, emergency wellness and supportive wellness when you need it. There’s no magical schedule, but since our Gregorian calendar is divided into 12 months in the Western world, the changing of the calendar month is a good time to introduce a new wellness habit.

When thinking about your recovery wellness, you need to know what works for you and what doesn’t. In this episode, I want to give you some practical ideas for that restorative wellness.

Let's talk about restorative wellness! I’ve got some suggestions to help you identify regularly occurring times of stress so you can cushion stressful times with a little extra wellness to help you recover.

Here are a couple more ideas to keep you motivated. 

If the new has worn off, the initial burst of excitement has fizzled, and you are  wondering if it is even worth the effort, this episode is all about mental motivation.

In this episode, I talk about how to add more of the nourishing stuff, and a better option for getting rid of bad habits. Then, I want to share a couple of reasons why you may be struggling with finding time for your good intentions.

In this episode, I share my thoughts about what you really need right now and what to expect in the phases of habit formation. Healthful habits form the first layer of your wellness plan so consistently add to your watering bucket. If you are doing the 100-day plan, this is establishing your first habit. Keep your wellness habits easy and quick, especially at the beginning!

You have a plan, and hopefully you’ve scheduled it, created reminders, paired it with anchor habits and set up a routine to increase your chances of success. Now, consider adding some social accountability and prepare yourself to be flexible with your expectations.

I've got four suggestions to turn ideas for wellness into intentional habits:  habit tracking, reminders, anchor habits, and routines.
